Chapter 16: The Truth (Asking for Collections, Asking for Recommendation Votes)
Kaifeng Mansion Yin Zezheng couldn't help but feel slightly nervous in his heart, was Zhao Zhi dressed too casually? After looking carefully, I found that Zhao Zhi turned out to be a sword-eyed and talented.
But with the sleeves of his upper body rolled up, and his whole body is dressed in a white-washed coarse cloth shirt, he doesn't look like a scholar, so it's no wonder that Prime Minister Wang Yanying looks down on it, and he also looks down on it.
I didn't want to be slightly nervous in my heart, the emperor couldn't help but raise his hand when he saw Zhao Zhi, and pointed at Zhao Zhi in surprise: "You? How did you get to the palace? ”
Kaifeng Mansion Yin's hands immediately couldn't help but tremble, the emperor knows Zhao Zhi? What's going on?
Zhao Zhi was also stunned, the handsome guy in the carriage he met halfway? How could it be in the palace?
When Kaifeng Mansion Yin saw it, he hurriedly inspected his words and looked at his face, and said with a salute; "Your Majesty, this is the person the minister wants to bring, his name is Zhao Zhi, he is a scholar, quite clever, and he can let the emperor clear the fog with just a few words."
'Your Majesty? ’
In an instant, it was Zhao Zhi's turn and he couldn't help but tremble, what else could he do? Although he is a faint monarch, he signed the disgraceful Tanyuan Alliance with the Liao State, and finally has the face to go to Mount Tai to seal Zen, but he is also an ancestor emperor in ancient times, so kneel down.
So Zhao Zhi was just stunned, and then quickly knelt down and said, "Subject Zhao Zhi, meet the emperor." ”
Zhao Heng was also obviously irritable and impatient, waving his hand casually and said: "I didn't expect it to be you, no need to be polite, get up, how can you let me clear the fog in a few words?" If you can solve the case in front of me for me, I will reward you heavily! Yin Ruochao has already told you, right? ”
The opportunity is in front of you, if you miss it, you won't come again, Zhao Zhi understands it.
So when he heard this, he couldn't help but brew in his heart for a moment, and he was no longer modest: "I also ask the emperor to forgive the subjects for capital crimes and allow the subjects to ask the emperor a few questions." ”
Zhao Heng waved his hand impatiently again: "You ask, I can be regarded as having a relationship with you, and I will not give you the death penalty with a word." ”
Zhao Zhi hurriedly bowed, and couldn't help but be slightly nervous: "Emperor Xie." The first question the subjects wanted to ask was, if Empress Liu Niangniang poisoned the prince, what good would it do to Empress Liu Niangniang? ”
Zhao Heng, who was still a little impatient when he heard this, couldn't help frowning in an instant, and said: "If Yi'er is poisoned, it won't do her any good, but ......."
Kaifeng Mansion Yin looked at his nose and nose: 'This kid doesn't care about anything, he doesn't want to be humble or arrogant in front of the emperor, I'm worried in vain, maybe the future is limitless." ’
Zhao Zhi followed: "The subjects dare to ask the emperor again, if the prince lives well, what good will it be to Queen Liu Niangniang?" ”
Zhao Heng snorted coldly directly: "Hmph! Now she is the queen, and one day she will be the queen mother. ”
Zhao Zhi followed: "Then dare to ask the emperor, is it the most beneficial for the status of Queen Liu Niangniang that the prince is alive?" Or that the queen's life is actually tied to the prince, and only when the prince becomes the emperor one day in the future, can the queen's status be more noble. ”
Yin Ruochao couldn't help but tremble again: "This kid really dares to say anything." ’
Zhao Heng nodded directly: "That's true, this is also what I can't figure out." ”
Zhao Zhi suddenly couldn't help but sigh in his heart, remembering that there was a saying in later generations, saying that the emperors of the Song Dynasty all had neuropathy genes, but this thing would be inherited, obviously Zhao Heng's brain was already a little confused, otherwise he should have figured it out himself.
So Zhao Zhi couldn't help but cautiously ask again: "Then the emperor, since the queen's life is tied to the prince." That is, the prince is here, the queen's identity will only be more expensive, the prince is not there, the queen will no longer exist, why does the queen poison the prince? ”
Finally, Zhao Heng couldn't help frowning and said, "You mean?" ”
What am I saying? Zhao Zhi couldn't help but ask himself, and then continued to ask: "There is also the most critical point, if the queen really wants to poison the prince, why does she have to send snacks in person?" Isn't this telling the emperor that the poison was caused by himself?
If a person really wants to poison, the subjects think that she will never go to it with her own hands, even if she lets a palace maid go, and then execute the palace maid, isn't there no proof of death? ”
In an instant, the fog in front of Zhao Heng's eyes couldn't help but be removed, and he sat on the dragon chair in a daze, and couldn't help muttering: "You mean, the poison is not under Liu Mo?" If it wasn't under Liu Mo, who else could it be? ”
Zhao Zhi continued to ask carefully: "The minister dared to ask the emperor a question of killing his head, if the prince was poisoned, after a hundred years of the emperor, who would be the biggest beneficiary of the prince's death?"
That is, poisoning the prince, who is the most beneficial? Who will take over the throne of the emperor? Who are the direct beneficiaries? Who doesn't want the prince to live the most? ”
Finally, the last series of questions, Zhao Heng couldn't help but be asked as if he had lost his soul.
On the side, Kaifeng Mansion Yin was shocked in his heart, and couldn't help but sweat for Zhao Zhi, so a few simple words cleared the fog and saw through all the conspiracies, which can only be described as terrifying.
Zhao Heng sat on the chair in a daze, unable to speak for a long time.
Kaifeng Mansion Yin has not finished the report, so he simply waited quietly with Zhao Zhi in the imperial study, the opportunity to soar into the sky is in front of him, and Kaifeng Mansion Yin will not miss it.
As a result, after a while, it wasn't until the chief eunuch Chen Lin quietly came to serve tea that Zhao Heng felt as if all his strength had been vented, and said: "I am panicked in my heart, I have never been so panicked in my heart. ”
Zhao Zhi also reacted quietly in his heart, and later generations recorded that it seemed that Zhao Heng was frightened because of this time, and he hiccups within a few days after that.
Then the ten-year-old prince Zhao Zhen ascended the throne, and the young queen Liu Mo came to the dynasty to weigh the system, and listened to the government, often called the queen of Lu of the Han Dynasty and the queen of Wu of the Tang Dynasty (Wu Zetian), and at the same time was called a generation of virtuous queens who had the talent of Lu Wu and did not have the evil of Lu Wu.
Originally, there were also courtiers who wrote to Liu Moth to be the emperor according to the affairs of Wu Zetian after the martial arts, but Liu Moth tore up all the chapters that made him the emperor, that is, he liked to wear a dragon robe to the emperor, but he resolutely did not call himself the emperor.
But since Zhao Heng was going to die, Zhao Zhi simply didn't stop him, let him continue to be frightened, and then he hiccuped smoothly, and saved Queen Liu Moth, but it was a great achievement, and then he could eat and wait for death to have nothing to do.
As a result, it was another moment when the needles in the imperial study could be heard, and Zhao Hengcai couldn't help but murmur to Chen Lin: "Is there any news from the Eight Sages King coming back?" ”
Chen Lin also replied cautiously: "Not yet." ”
Zhao Heng couldn't help but look at Yin and Zhao Zhi of Kaifeng Mansion blankly, and couldn't help but say: "I'm not a fool, I don't need to check at this time and already know who it is, but I can't believe it, why did my emperors die one after another?"
If I don't have an emperor, after a hundred years, Liu Mo will not be able to take over the throne, so it is impossible for Liu Mo to poison my emperor, only the one who can be the emperor.
Yin Ruochao, what do you say I should do? ”
Supporting the building to tilt and turn the tide, Yin Ruochao couldn't help but stand up and say: "Please also ask the emperor to forgive the sin, because the minister listened to Zhao Gongzi's reasoning, without the permission of the emperor, he has privately sent a letter to the privy envoy Cao, thinking that soon the army of Lord Cao will come to the city." ”
Zhao Heng couldn't believe it when he heard it, and then he couldn't help but be overjoyed and said, "Okay!" ”
But before he finished a sentence, he only felt dizzy, and hurriedly stroked his forehead with one hand.
Zhao Zhi couldn't help but say in his heart: 'A surprise and a joy, big ups and downs, Lord Fu Yin, do you think the emperor is dying slowly?' This time, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for even a few days. ’
At this moment, suddenly a small eunuch reported carefully: "Your Majesty, the prime minister has led a scholar to ask to see him outside." ”
